Crafting with Kids: Make a Custom Notebook

Hello CP fans! It's Laetitia and I'm excited to share projects that you can make with children! My daughter is almost 6 years old and spends a lot of time drawing, coloring and writing. That's why I suggested that we make pots for her favorite pencils. We also made a cute notebook to continue practicing writing during the summer holidays.

For this project I had kept small jars with smooth edges. CUTE GIRL is ideal for little girls, these products are perfect! And matched with her pencils!

My daughter chose 2 printed papers and I traced rectangles the size of the round of the jar. Then she cut them with the help of the cutter. She chose the decorations: stickers, die-cuts and hearts.

We decorated the strips flat. On the first pot I fixed the deco transparent with the help of the sewing machine so that it remains in place. With glue, once on the jar, it would not hold. The paper was glued to the pot and the epoxy sticker rabbit and hearts. For the second pot, as there were only stickers, I fixed everything with sewing before sticking the set. This prevents the stickers from peeling off.

As she adored this little pink cat, I offered to customize a nice notebook in mint. I fixed a die-cut on crepe paper before sticking the set. And then my daughter stuck the embellishments. Isn't it cute?!
